Chicken breast fillets at Nisa have been withdrawn from sale because of an incorrect use by date on the packaging and anyone who bought a pack should urgently return it.

The skinless fillets have a use by date of December 29 printed on the label - but they will actually be unsafe to eat after November 29 - a whole month earlier than advertised.

The Heritage British Skinless Chicken Breast Fillets are sold in Nisa stores.

Customers have been warned against being caught out by the error on the Food Standards Agency website.

The agency warned on Friday (November 23): "The affected products have been labelled with an incorrect use-by date, and therefore could inadvertently be eaten past the date by which it can be safely consumed."
